"My server, Cara did an amazing job was very helpful, the service was very fast, I got a strawberry lemonade she brought it out to me within a couple of minutes and even brought a refill when I requested one just as quickly, The food was delicious. Cara recommended the chicken Flautas and they were 9/10 wish I had more, she was very helpful, one of the best servers I've had anywhere around the area, when we paid, and left they wished us a good night very friendly, and professional, would definitely come back and recommend to others (Even with kids) they have a menu and drawing thing for them.Kid-friendliness: They have a childrens menu and crayons with something the kids can draw on and take home just the little special things."

I recently visited this restaurant and found it conveniently located on Haggerty Road, complete with its own parking lot. The atmosphere is wonderful...

The majority of the staff showed little to no interest in assisting anyone, resulting in a truly disappointing experience. I believe I've had my fill of this place, especially given the rising prices. View menu

I visited a few times at the border, and the general sentiment is that they have the potential to improve. On the day I went, the staff was understaffed, but the servers did their best to provide good service.

I almost skipped this place due to the mediocre reviews, but I'm really glad I decided to go since it was close to my hotel and I followed my instincts. The restaurant is exceptionally clean, the food is fantastic, and the...

Terrible service. My server, Carra did not check on us, give us napkins or refills. Brung us out the wrong order was told if I ate the beans i would’ve been charged for it, even though I did not order it. Manager was rude also. I will not be back. View menu

The food was not as I had before. They used corn tortillas instead of flour. Not enough cheese sauce on top of the chicken cheese enchiladas. I was very disappointed. Especially we had to wait 10 weeks to come back for what we thought was going to be a delicious dinner. My husband had undergone cancer treatment. It was time he started solid food. We decided to get enchiladas his favorite. Big disappointment.We probably won't go back there. It's not good to change foods and not tell people.

Food was okay, price is good, service was okay, BUT the place was dirty! Danger here, I mean food on the floor, food left on table next to us the whole meal, food on the menu. WOW I got up at the end of our meal to use the restroom, truck stops are cleaner. Looked back at kitchen on my way out and am absolutely horrified. This was Saturday at 4pm before the dinner rush? I watched a SERVER wipe the floor in one spot from a spill then use the SAME RAGE TO WIPE CHAIR AND TABLE TOP. Just don't eat here to be safe.

"The same could be said for the plank. The tapenade was overly salty, and the garlic in the hummus was too intense. If you're a huge fan of garlic, this might suit you, but for me, it was off-putting. Having tasted authentic hummus from Lebanese, Jordanian, and Syrian cuisines, this version was quite different. It had chunks of garlic that affected both the texture and gave an unpleasant astringent taste. The pita triangles were small and not soft, and the red pepper was bland and overly oily. I appreciate the effort Jacob made to ensure I had vegan options when I picked up my order. He even got a server on the phone to discuss which items could be made vegan—mostly salads—though they wouldn’t substitute ingredients, only remove dairy, meat, or eggs. He also attempted to get a sorbet dessert that wasn't officially on the menu, but it wasn't ready yet. While the staff is friendly and the restaurant is popular, it falls short in accommodating vegans. In response to your acknowledgment of the issues in my review, it's good to clarify that you're not a vegetarian or vegan restaurant. This is important information for diners. I only realized the problems after getting home since it was late and raining, making it impractical to call for replacements. It's crucial that you ensure the quality of what you serve, particularly for takeout orders. If a dish isn't prepared properly, it shouldn't be sold. I previously credited Jacob for his efforts, so I'm unsure why that point was repeated. When I inquired about 'veganizing' a dish, the server mentioned they could only remove non-vegan items from salads. It would greatly help your customers if you clearly outlined possible substitutions and labeled your menu better for those with dietary restrictions, whether vegan or otherwise. Currently, there are very few suitable options for vegans."

"NEWEST UPDATE 8 3 23: We did try Masala again, and ordered all VERY mild, but their level of spice is just too much for us. Very good food, but too spicy for our palate, so for those who like that, it 's great food! : UPDATE And now, this was the fastest owner response to a complaint we 've ever had! The owner called me approx 1.5 hours after I called in to tell them about the spice level problem, and apologized profusely. He hadn 't even read this review yet. He is refunding our money, said the kitchen mixed up our order with another who wanted medium plus , he has new staff, and so yes, we WILL try them again. He could not have been more apologetic or nicer, and so I will update this review once more after we order mild in the future, and get to EAT mild . : Fastest review turnaround I 've ever done. Ordered at 10:51 a.m. today, it was ready by 11:04, we finished tasting at 11:25. There is VERY little chicken in the korma maybe 4 little pieces and the rest sauce. Both the aloo gobi and the korma were ordered Mild , and BOTH dishes are far too spicy for us to eat. The just over $30 for small portions of overly spiced food is now in the trash. And when we called back to ask if a mistake had been made, as we could not eat their food, the woman answering the phone didn 't seem to care AT ALL. This was our first and now LAST time ordering food from this restaurant."

"Not too busy when we arrived on a Sunday at dinner time on the far right, there was a rather large party so we were seated to the left plenty of open tables on the left side. The hostess was very nice and friendly. Within five or 10 minutes of being seated, a rather large group was seated right behind our table and they were loud. They didn’t care that they kept bumping into my seat every time they got up/sat down I’m sure the hostess had to know that they had that large party coming and could have possibly seated us at any of the tables further away from this party Had we not already received our drinks and bread I would have requested to move unfortunately, their loudness ruined our dinner discussion, interacting with each other or a relaxing meal because we could barely hear each other over their loudness The food was delicious. Cooked to perfection. I ordered the Greek lasagna starts with a “p” w/ green beans very good. Love the red sauce on the pasta dish and those green beans are in the most delicious sauce as well. My husband ordered the Chicken lemonata (sp? came with two sides. Both were very good. Meal came with fresh Greek bread. We also ordered the traditional calamari. The Calamari has a light breading and although tasty I really didn’t get much of a flavor of the squid it almost seems so like I couldn’t taste it I prefer a bit thicker slices of squid Service was good. We had an older gentleman who had a bit of an off or dry humor. I often couldn’t hear what he was saying We definitely will be back as there were many other options we want to try $55 meal (inc. tip We didn’t go home hungry"
